Physical Requirements5.1 The materials shall conform to the physical propertiesprescribed in Table 1.5.2 In the applicable requirements of Table 1 and the testmethods, all deflection shall be based on the nominal width.6. Dimensions and Working Param

18、eters6.1 The size, shape, and dimensional tolerances shall be asoutlined in 6.1.1.6.1.1 Measurements used for laboratory testing shall betaken to the nearest 0.01 in. (0.3 mm) and reported/recorded tothe nearest 0.1 in. (3 mm) as the average of three measure-ments. The measured width shall be greate

19、r than or equal to thenominal width. The seal height shall not be less than 90 % ofthe nominal width unless joint recess dimensions or specialdesign considerations dictate the geometry.6.2 Compression Deflection PropertiesThe contact pres-sure expressed in pounds-force per square inch (or pascals)wh

20、en the seal is compressed to any particular width indicatesthe stress-strain relationship that exists in the seal. Thisrelationship is dependent on both the properties of the elasto-mer and the cross-sectional configuration of the seal.Therefore, for a predetermined allowable pressure, a definitiver

21、elationship will exist and the working limits of the seal may bedefined.6.2.1 The working limits (minimum and maximum degreesof compression) of the seal shall be determined on the basis ofthe minimum and maximum limits of compressibility (LCminand LCmax), and the movement range as specified herein.

22、Sealswith nominal width differing from that specified areacceptable, providing the compressed width at LCmaxis lessthan the minimum anticipated joint opening, and the movementrange requirement is met.6.2.2 The minimum limit of compressibility (LCmin)isdefined as the compressed width (expressed in te

23、rms of percentof nominal width) corresponding to a contact pressure of 3 psi(20.68 kPa). The LCminshall be determined in accordance with9.3. For the purpose of calculating movement range, a value at85 % of nominal width shall be used for LCminwhen themeasured value of LCminexceeds 85 %.NOTE 2If the

24、seal generates a pressure of 3 psi at 90 % of nominalwidth, LCminequals 85 %. However, if the seal generates 3 psi at 70 % ofnominal width, the LCminequals 70 %.6.2.3 The maximum limit of compressibility (LCmax)isdefined as the compressed width (expressed in terms of percentof nominal width) corresp

25、onding to a contact pressure of 35 psi(241.32 kPa). The LCmaxshall be determined in accordancewith 9.3.LCmaxhas been designated at 35 psi (241.32 kPa) inorder to mitigate the tendencies toward pressure decay of theseal during use. A reading of 35 psi is considered an absolutemaximum pressure which s

26、hould not be exceeded.6.2.4 The movement range of the seal is defined as thenumerical difference between the LCminand the LCmaxex-pressed in inches (mm). For the purpose of calculating themovement range, a value at 85 % shall be used for LCminwhenthe measured value of LCminexceeds 85 %. For purposes

27、 ofacceptance testing, the calculated movement range of the sealshall not be less than the specified value.7. Sampling7.1 A lot shall consist of the quantity for each cross sectionagreed upon between the purchaser and the supplier.7.2 Samples shall be taken at random from each shipment ofmaterial. I

28、f the shipment consists of more than one lot, each lotshall be sampled.7.3 The minimum lengths of samples for testing purposesshall be as prescribed by the purchaser or as prescribed in Table2.8.

The use ofthe joint seal as the specimen source requires that more plies than specified ineither of the modified test procedures be used. Such specimen modification shallbe agreed upon between the purchaser an

33、d the supplier prior to testing. Thehardness test shall be made with the durometer in a durometer stand asrecommended in Test Method D2240.BSample prepared in accordance with Method A of Test Method D518.CCracking, splitting, or sticking of a specimen during a recovery test shall meanthat the specim

37、 Die D may be used when the flat sections of a seal aretoo small for Die C. However, the requirement of Table 1 shallapply regardless of the die used. Buffing should be carefullyperformed and kept to a minimum.8.3 Specimens for low-temperature and high-temperaturerecovery tests and for pressure defl

38、ection tests shall consist of6-in. (150-mm) lengths of the preformed seal.9. Test Methods9.1 Compliance with the requirements of Table 1 shall bedetermined by tests conducted in accordance with the methodsspecified.9.2 Recovery Tests:9.2.1 Determine the low-temperature and high-temperaturerecovery t

39、est values using specimens prepared in accordancewith Section 8. Two specimens shall be used for each test.9.2.2 Deflect the specimen between parallel plates to 50 %of the nominal width using the compression set clamp assem-bly described in Method B of Test Methods D395. Prior tocompression, place t

40、he specimen in a horizontal position, suchthat the plane through both edges of the top surface of the jointseal is perpendicular to the compression plate.As the specimenis being compressed, the top surface of the joint seal shouldfold inward toward the center of the specimen.9.2.3 Place a clamp asse

Unclamp theassembly and remove the upper compression plate, or carefullyremove the specimen from the assembly and transfer it to awooden surface in the refrigerated box

42、. Allow the specimen torecover for1hat146 2 F (10 6 1.1 C). Measure therecovered width in the center of the 6-in. (150-mm) length atthe top longitudinal edge of the specimen. Measurements maybe made with either a dial caliper or a platform-mounted dialgage graduated in thousandths of an inch (0.025

43、mm). Theplatform-mounted gage shall have a14-in. (6-mm) diameterpressure foot with a force of 0.18 6 0.02 lbf (0.80 6 0.09 N).Measurements with the platform-mounted gage should betaken with the pressure foot centered on the longitudinal edgeof the seal. Calculate the recovery as follows:Recovery, %

Measure therecovered width and calculate the recovery as in 9.2.3.9.2.5 Place a clamp assembly containing the compressedspecimen in an oven conforming to Test Method D573. Thetemperature shall be maintained at 212 6 2

47、F (100 6 1.1 C)for 70 h. Do not preheat the clamp assembly. Unclamp theassembly, carefully remove the specimen, and allow it torecover at 73 6 4 F (23 6 2.2 C) on a wooden surface for1 h. Measure the recovered width and calculate the recovery asin 9.2.3.9.3 Compression Deflection Tests:9.3.1 Determi
